Just a random post...

Bethany Hope at 5 weeks old, such a sweet and easy baby girl!
Naomi with her speech therapist Amanda. Naomi has been in therapy with her for a year now and the Lord has truely used her to help Naomi. The only thing we are working on now is her articulation. She is talking sentences and even singing some short songs, we just need to work on making those words clear. Naomi just had an evaluation and still needs therapy but falls on the very cut off point for needing it!! We are thankful for her progress! I have been teaching the girls some piano and while feeding Beth the other day, Naomi sat at the piano singing her ABC's I was impressed!



I have been having some major headaches ever since we moved here and thankfully today at my 6 week check up, we found out the cause.......low estrogen levels. I have been to so many dr's and Mike and I were just about to pay out of pocket for me to try the chiropractor(tricare covers nothing!!). Anyways the can be very severe at times and I have them most everyday. My dr said she could give me some estrogen and they would go away but the estrogen would dry my milk up. I am not ready to do that so she gave me some ideas on some more pain medications to try. Hopefully one of those will work, if not I may have to look into weaning Beth and taking estrogen but I want to try these other meds first as I LOVE feeding her and she is doing so well!! I am SO SO SO thankful to have a diagnosis for my headaches. I have spent many tears over them and was starting to think I was just going crazy!

Oh, Misty! I'm so sorry about your headaches:( I've had a few in my days and they are NO FUN! I'll be praying for you.

Sweet pics of your girls. I love them so much. I think we need to shrink the United States; that way, wherever y'all move to, we can come see you in a day or less. Sounds good, eh? :)

So glad for your diagnosis, and it not be insanity! Our sweet baby looks so peaceful--I'm glad she's a mellow baby. You needed one! And yay for Bemmie! That Amanda is a jewel. Love to all!

Misty,

I am so glad that they are going to be able to help you feel better! I am so proud of Naomi! God answers so many prayers! I can't wait to get to hold Beth. She is so peaceful. I am not sure what happened last night when you called...Andy was getting me the phone (cordless) and it died, then I tried to call you back and it just rang and rang until your voicemail picked up. We are home today and please call me when you have a chance.


Love,
Tabitha
